There's a G6/Alot of things I want,

A rags to riches story for A6me.
[Pre-Chorus 1]
It's Bb/Cjust one little thing I Cgot to make come true,
It's Bb/Cjust one round I've got to win
I Ccan't be a loser with G6/Ayou,
Baby, baby

Just Aonce in my life
I'm gonna get what I want girl don't G6/Alet me down.
Just Aonce in my life let me hold on to
The good G6/Athing I found don't Alet me down,
G6/ABaby say that you'd be staying,

If you weren't here by my A6side.
And G6/Aif you went away,
Then I'd be left without any A6pride

Cause Ceveryone fell through,
I've Bb/Cgiven up so many things,
Don't Cask me to give up on G6/Ayou!
And baby, baby
